>I think you'll find that many (most) of the questions are answered in the FAQ; rather than repeating the things that I'd answered time and again, I've gone and dropped them in the FAQ, and then sent people to the FAQ for the gory details. Perhaps if other people chould do that, we'd be able to have less lengthy conversations about things we've rehashed a few billion times before.
>IOW, rather than starting another FAQ, forcing people to go all over creation to find the right FAQ, why not make the one we've got better? Sounds like a win for everybody - make the FAQ stronger, get the best answers to the questions up with a known location we can point to in messages, and cut down on where we have to go to find a decent answer all at the same time...

I guess I was thinking about doing a most freq every month or so, for the most freq. questions of that month. I've learned alot by reading about other people's problems and the answers that others have posted. It seemed like we could all be better coders if some of the most freq. pitfalls were gathered together into one place so you could just read them over.

If the thread annoys you, I will drop it, but I would rather continue doing the gathering.
